Regular season games are almost entirely meaningless to this franchise and have been for several seasons now beyond our core players staying healthy in them.
Mahomes is not healthy right now. Rest him. [Reply]

They didn't bust their ass all season to not get the #1 seed. [Reply]

Yea that's nonsensical take. We have 3 games left with a 2 game lead. We need to win 2 games. And frankly I don't want one of them to have to be against Denver week 18. [Reply]

The chances of losing Mahomes are way lower than losing the #1 seed because Wentz is ass.
People think Andy can coach Wentz up to his early career form. Maybe he can for a game but Wentz's most recent history isn't pretty. If Mahomes can go he needs to go. This team needs the bye if it's going to 3-peat. Heck if we're just going to be cautious at this point just don't play Mahomes the rest of the year and settle for the #2 seed. Just approach the last three games like the preseason. [Reply]
Mahomes has won 4 Hunt's and 3 Lombardi's in 5 years. I guarantee you he wants to play.
So are we saying the fans think he's dumb? Because that's absolutely what infers. Let's trust Pat until the fear sets in and then throw that all out the window and sit him. [Reply]

Show me the evidence that he's going to get hurt and I will concede. But your can't, because it's not true.
You need to be shown “evidence” to acknowledge that getting hit and sacked risks aggravating a high ankle sprain?

Of course he wants to play. That's why the coaching staff will have to protect him from himself this Saturday and do what is best for our SB chances. [Reply]
Of course there's risk. The question is how much. It's not up to me to prove, Im not the one making the assumption that he's gonna get hurt if he plays. [Reply]

The ones in January count. Especially ones he wouldn't have to play if they get the #1 seed. [Reply]

Look at FPI. Look at Vegas. Look at NFL history.
The odds are MUCH better playing 1 less game in the playoffs.
The #1 seed gives them by far the best chance to win the Super Bowl. [Reply]
